Steps To Make a Vastu Friendly Prayer Room
The
most sacred and auspicious area of the house is a prayer or pooja room. The place where
idols of Gods are placed, religious texts are stored, and where all the Godly
belongings are located. One may ask, why separate room for Gods when they
reside spiritually everywhere? The simplest and the most immediate answer to
this question is, by creating a pooja room, we are creating a space for
positivity, an aura that will revitalize the environment, mind, body, and soul.
This place brings a soul near to enlightenment and allows you to make peace with
the world. A pooja room
will enable you to meditate, pray to God, thus creating
a holy atmosphere. Little do people know about Vastu Shastra for pooja room,
they think only the placement of idols of Gods is important. But one should
understand that a wrong placement or incorrect direction can bring bad luck to
the house residents.
So
how do you create a place completely filled with positive vibrations and which
will only work for the progress, prosperity, and peace of the people living
inside? For detailed information, you can always contact an expert. Some of the
rules regarding the Do’s and Don’ts are listed here. Keep reading further.
The first and the most important step for making a Vastu compliant pooja room is to
locate the pooja room in the tranquility zone. The best direction as per Vastu Shastra for designing a
pooja room is the Northeast corner of the house. But if you have space
constraints for that direction, you can also design a pooja room in the East or
West direction of the house.
Few other points to be considered are:
●
Construct a pooja room on
the ground floor;
●
For factories and big
plots can have a pooja room near the northwest zone of the plot.
●
The auspicious direction for
keeping the idols are East and/or West direction of the pooja room;
●
The idols should be placed
a few inches away from the walls of the pooja room;
●
The idols should be in
perfect condition when placed in the pooja room. A damaged image or idol should
be avoided in the pooja room;

If the pooja place has
doors and windows, they should be in the north or east walls;
●
If you are planning to have
a marble carved prayer room, white and yellow colored marble work is considered
auspicious;

light yellow or light blue color is best suitable for a pooja room;

east while praying.
